I firmly believe the "no torque in 4v" is purely a myth perpetuated by people who don't know how to assemble components to build a motor. I will also add that with 410 cubes the larger ports do get used more.

Yeah, I always thought the 4v rumors were really just because they're relative rare. Although I'm sure those 59 extra cubes help boost the torque and put those massive ports to work. How high do you get the RPMs? I hear the 4v are real screamers.

Great numbers and cool video. Your car is wicked fast. I would love to take my car to the strip some time but I an not sure I even can since it is a convertible.
